    Breakfast was very limited & mostly gone before everyone in my party got something. Also the pool wasn't available.

    The rooms were nice & the location was good.

    Room was ok. Had a smell to the room. It wasn't horrible but I noticed it. It was ok for one night but not longer.

    Very much a “budget” hotel in terms of facilities, but not that cheap (over $100 a night).

    There was nobody at reception when we arrived at 4.50pm - had to wait 10 minutes to check in. Then the toilet in the room was blocked (but cleared by the receptionist). WiFi didn’t work at all in the room; there was some WiFi at the reception lobby, but very slow. Included “breakfast” was minimal - just toast and coffee, and a few very small one-inch doughnuts.

    Room was clean and comfortable.

    If there was suppose to be a hair dryer, I never found one. We could hear the people upstairs when they walked around their room. Walls are pretty thin here. New updated bedspreads/quilt would go a long way.

    Loved that they partner with the restaurant across the street for a discount on your food (which was excellent!) The staff there were very friendly. Like that a microwave and refrigerator comes with the room.

    We paid for a room with a 3rd bed and did not get it. Since we were a late check in we had to get out key across the street at another hotel and it wasn’t worth going back over.

    Great location if you are visiting The Badlands

    There aren't many places to eat in town. We also stayed on a Sunday and being a small town, food places closed very early. We had gas station food for dinner. Plan accordingly if you stay here.

    Breakfast was just your basic continental breakfast. The pool was non functional when we stayed. The outside of the building was run down and not upkept however the rooms were clean and comfortable. The staff was friendly. The location was very close to the Badlands. I would stay here again.

    Everything It was closed. They were not accepting reservations. They were not putting anybody up for the night no notification they were closed. No one answered any phone calls from both hotel and Booking.com. Nobody’s responded to my messaging both the hotel and Booking.com. You need to vet your properties at Booking.com. I want to refund and I should be getting some compensation for having to go down the road, and find a more expensive hotel late at night

    The breakfast was not great but to be fair, we were also given a coupon for a nearby restaurant if we had wanted other options.

    It's an old facility but the family room was plenty big for our family of 5

    There was nothing about the place that was acceptable. It was dirty, desk clerk not very friendly, the room. Was FULL of flies. Clerk was rude to my grandchildren when they asked for the wifi password to be written more clearly (it never did work due to her NOT re-writing it). The outside had tall weeds and very u acceptable curb appeal. THE ONLY REASON WE STAYED was because it was non-refundable (I had made reservations online after a long day of traveling and I was tired). I would NEVER recommend this nasty filthy place!!!! Pictures attached were of the ceiling....bottom level room

    There was nothing about the place that was acceptable.

    70’s vibe but not in good way. Very dark and smells icky-probably cleaner. Suspect bedbugs cause both of us woke up with lots of bites. Only a couple of the many lamps worked, making it depressing. Staff did bare minimum. “Breakfast” was a single bagel, coffee no milk or creamer, and a pack of mini powdered donuts and encouragement to go across the street to the diner. Picture show pool but looks like no plans to fix it. Should’ve been ½ the price charged

    Convenient to National Park. Clean

    We came at 8pm and even though we had a reservation there was nobody at the property and no keys or information left for us. Nobody answered the phone and nobody replied to our messages. We had to look for another place to stay late at night after not being able to get in touch with the management of this hotel.
